From Janis: I became aware of Kyra when she asked for a license to produce and perform “Loving Janis”, a tribute to my own work and that of my friend Janis Joplin. Through the years I’ve watched her evolve as a performer, gaining confidence and strengthening her abilities as an artist. During lockdown, she collaborated with guitarist Mimi Fox to create this lovely piece. Once I’d seen Mimi’s work, I asked her to also contribute an instrumental, which you can see next door to this piece. Thank you both, ladies!

BETTER TIMES WILL COME
(Janis Ian)

Better times, better times will come.
Better times, better times will come.
When this world learns to live as one,
oh, better times will come

When we greet each dawn without fear
knowing loved ones soon will be near
When the winds of war
cannot blow any more
Oh, better times will come

CHORUS

Though we live each day as our last
we know someday soon it will pass
We will dance, we will sing
in that never-ending spring
Oh, better times will come

CHORUS
